We take pride in providing individualised care tailored to each person’s unique needs, supporting older people, including those living with  Alzheimer’s, other forms of dementia, or experiencing social isolation. Our dedicated and professional team ensures every client receives the highest standard of care, whether it’s through companionship, engaging activities, or personal care support. We strive to deliver a truly well-rounded and compassionate service.

Open six days a week from 9:30am to 3:00pm, Highview offers a welcoming space featuring a dining area and three activity rooms, including a relaxation and sensory room. Outside, clients can enjoy our beautiful garden, complete with a shed, greenhouse, vegetable patch, and colourful flower beds, perfect for relaxation or a bit of gentle gardening.

Meet Our Home Manager

Pauline Clarke

My name is Pauline, and I have over 20 years of experience working with Runwood Homes. Throughout my career, I have held various managerial positions within the company before returning to manage Highview Day Centre in 2014. I take great pride in leading the day centre and in providing care and support not only to our service users but also to their families.

Together with my dedicated team, I strive to create a warm, supportive, and happy environment where every individual receives the high-quality care they deserve.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and relaxing in my garden or allotment, it’s my favourite way to unwind and recharge.
